Spring Break!!

I have been enjoying my Spring Break to the max! It all started last Thursday -- we had school, but it was basically a wasted day with a huge assembly at the end of the day and not much getting accomplished before then...

my dad drove me to work in the morning & picked me up at the end of the day and we road tripped to Omaha! land that still had 5 foot snow banks in some spots (parking lots, sides of highways, etc)...it was gloomy while we were there, but we got to see our friends bev & rex and my cousin janet & her hubby john (good luck in the re-election, john!)...lots of eating out & just hanging out and relaxing...drove up to dana on saturday -- it was dead there!! did some shopping with bev...we drove home on monday...

tuesday was a jammie day & i sat around at home in my pj's and did nothing (ok, so i did do a little cleaning & i think i watched a movie or something)...wednesday was some shopping & church & a soup supper...

thursday was my long day -- dentist at 8:45! he did some sealing on one side of my mouth, and i don't have to go for another 6 months :)...i also took my car in for an oil change -- they also checked the car out & i needed an air filter, a wheel alignment & 2 new tires...yay me! when i picked up my car & started it, the check engine light came on!! so, i just walked back in & they came right out and checked under the hood -- one of the hoses from the air filter replacement had come loose...they reattached it & reset the engine's computer, and i was set (finally)...went to costco and a few other errands -- including buying more bubble bath (LUSH & Bath & Body Works) and TWO dresses at lane bryant -- one is yellow for Easter & one is black, but it looked darn good on!!

today has been a few errands...

i dropped off sunshine albums today at Cardinal Glennon Children's Hospital -- 31 mini books & 5 altered journals!! i will be making more to take at this time next year :) i love this process & i hope others can join in with me!!

just then weekend then back to the grind of work...it will be interesting heading back!!

toodles!

so busy

spring break starts soon...i will be home & away & doing all sorts of fun things during that week...i am excited because i have 2 more days until break! BUT, i have a lot of things to finish before then...i know i can do it, but i would prefer extra sleep over extra "work"...

in other news, i read a bunch this past weekend -- it was gorgeous out, so i sat on the porch & read for awhile...i plan on being extra crafty over break...and cleaning (yuck) a lot over break -- i think spring break was really invented so people who work in schools could do spring cleaning...

watched "inglourious basterds" last night -- pretty disturbing film at times...but i thought parts were very funny...it was good, in a way, but i am not a fan of subtitles & that totally threw me off when they started speaking german & french & i had to start reading my movie...

time to head to work! (they are predicting low 70s today!!!!)

life & times...

it was a crazy week -- did 1 day teaching (my advisor loves me) and lots of crazy coverage at work as well...

scrapped friday night with barb & tina & kathy & cathi & carol...i finished 5 pages, so i am happy!

today it hit 65 -- i sat outside & read for an hour or so, it felt so good to be outside and breathing fresh air! get some of the germs gone, too!

nothing else much happening...enjoying the start of spring -- and only a 4 day work week this week -- friday starts spring break!! woo!!

toodles!
